I ask this every couple of months since we have new people coming in all
the time, and new work being done.
Has **ANYONE** come up with a version of the AT386 ANSI console driver
that supports more than 25 text lines on the VGA? This is trivial to do
with the EGA, but the VGA programs differently at the register level and
none of the vendors seem to have cared about writing matching ioctl's
for it. (They are probably addicted to X Windows and think nobody uses
text mode anymore).
If any of the resellers have added tall screen VGA support, I'd like to
hear it. Or if anyone has a console driver patch...
